“The location is a definite plus, tucked away from the main drag yet close to some restaurants. While some may find the grab-and-go breakfast limiting, others appreciate the convenience, especially during the summer months. It seems like a practical choice, with friendly staff and clean common areas being frequently mentioned. For travelers who prioritize these aspects, it holds clear appeal.”
